just giving in
so hard for some to do
i let the pen do the work
and make this song for you
it's hard to excuse it
time after time after time
the mind gets useless
line after line after line
oh yeah oh yeah
well that's a courageous step
i get up every blue moon on an open mic
just to persuade my rep
of being more adequate
cause i hear that's what hip hop's about
being full of yourself and holding your own
and maybe a little too proud
oh yes i said it out loud
and i take responsibility
i have love toward everyone
and everybody's ability
so please allow me to be me
and i'll reciprocate the same pleasure
i'm taking freebees
and giving you back the same measure
excess is best kept to yourself
next lesson is mental and health
next best to excess is best dressed at recess
but you get what your dealt
it's so funny
when i was in high school
girls were impressed by guys with money
but it's their parents money fools
causing too much destruction
in the process of reconstruction
the same type of thing when you meet someone
and don't need further introduction
well there's just something about them
and you can't quite put your finger on it
there's nothing to do in your conversation
other than to be honest
and that comes naturally
cause there's nothing to think about
there's gold in the water you're drinking
but you don't here me out loud
